You might be right. But I feel I have been spoiled by blue. I really like being able to have counterspells and draw spells. I think the drawing capabilities really help smooth out whatever I am playing, and counterspells are kind of like an emergency exit button. Plus Snapcaster just seems really cool to me! If I were to keep blue, what should I add to keep it more viable? Or if I were to cut it, what would fill the missing slots? I am open to any suggestions.

if you cut the blue you get 13 spots i think... you could replace it with 2-3 Thrun 1 more inferno titan 4 bop 2 devils play maybe? probably 1 more arc trail assuming this is for manteca and i dunno shocks, incinerates, fireballs, or maybe solemn.. i dunno just a though. also sticking with 2 colors you will smooth out the mana base a little bit
